BRC Global Standards (BRCGS) have now published Issue 4 of the Global Standard for Storage and Distribution.
It can be applied to any part of the supply chain and covers all activities which affect the safety, legality, quality and integrity of products stored and distributed, and of any additional contracted services that may be offered by storage and distribution operators.
It has been specifically designed for logistics operations dealing with Food, Packaging, and Consumer Products and aligns with GFSI 2020 requirements, as well as being covered by globally recognised accreditation (ISO/IEC 17065).
Richa Bedi-Navik, BRCGS Technical Manager-Food, Storage & Distribution, said: “Our new Standard has evolved to meet changing consumer expectations, supply chain dynamics, and technological advances in the industry. It is a fully flexible standard with multiple applications that can be applied at any point in the distribution chain from primary production to retail. We greatly appreciate the input from brands, retailers, storage, logistics and online retailers to help us upgrade the Standard to deliver assurance in product safety and integrity”.
The BFFF has very much welcomed being part of the working group in the development of this standard.
